“The average poop weighs around 1/4 pound to 1 pound. Larger people who eat and drink more, or people who have less-regular bowel movements, have heavier poops. It takes an average of 33 hours for food to be processed into poop and pass out of your body.”
— some health site
That means that by the time we reach 60 years of age, we have pooped 3 to 11 tons of poop.
That would make a big pile of poop.
Think of all of the food that was eaten to make that poop.
Think of all of the growing, and moving, and thinking that this allowed.
If that is not an accomplishment, then I don’t know what is.
Eat a little. Poop a little.
Eat a little. Poop a little.
Eat. Eat. Eat.
Poop a lot.
Eat a little more.
I don't know if any of you were paying attention, but there used to be a website called ratemypoo, and another called ratemyshit, the stranger and disturbed among us will probably know what I'm talking about, but not admit to visiting it.
Those days of the internet were full of wild concepts, a lot of stupid ideas, but a great sense of randomness. Establishing internet culture off the bedrock of questionable content is part of our internet identity and while we might be ashamed to admit that, much of it seeps through today.
So, while i'm not at all interested about the rating of my poo (at least any more) I am thankful for the crazy guy that thought of that in the first place, and used the internet as a place to flesh out all the awkward taboo ideas swirling round in our heads that people "IRL" might not not square well with.
